Let's move away from using strncpy() as it is deprecated [1].

Instead use strtomem() as `e.id` is already marked as nonstring:
|       char id[4] __nonstring;

We don't need strtomem_pad() because `e` is already memset to 0 --
rendering any additional NUL-padding useless.

When new memory notifier types are added in common code and
unimplemented on s390, return success instead of EINVAL return code.

This prevents breakage when new memory notifier types are added.

<title>s390/ctlreg: add local and system prefix to some functions</title>

<id>8d5e98f8d6b11dd0e61323ece3b7ccceea55c281</id>
<content type='text'>
Add local and system prefix to some functions to clarify they change
control register contents on either the local CPU or the on all CPUs.

This results in the following API:

Two defines which load and save multiple control registers.
The defines correlate with the following C prototypes:

void __local_ctl_load(unsigned long *, unsigned int cr_low, unsigned int cr_high);
void __local_ctl_store(unsigned long *, unsigned int cr_low, unsigned int cr_high);

Two functions which locally set or clear one bit for a specified
control register:

void local_ctl_set_bit(unsigned int cr, unsigned int bit);
void local_ctl_clear_bit(unsigned int cr, unsigned int bit);

Two functions which set or clear one bit for a specified control
register on all CPUs:

void system_ctl_set_bit(unsigned int cr, unsigned int bit);
void system_ctl_clear_bit(unsigend int cr, unsigned int bit);

Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:

 - A couple of virtual vs physical address confusion fixes

 - Rework locking in dcssblk driver to address a lockdep warning

 - Remove support for "noexec" kernel command line option since there is
   no use case where it would make sense

 - Simplify kernel mapping setup and get rid of quite a bit of code

 - Add architecture specific __set_memory_yy() functions which allow us
   to modify kernel mappings. Unlike the set_memory_xx() variants they
   take void pointer start and end parameters, which allows using them
   without the usual casts, and also to use them on areas larger than
   8TB.

   Note that the set_memory_xx() family comes with an int num_pages
   parameter which overflows with 8TB. This could be addressed by
   changing the num_pages parameter to unsigned long, however requires
   to change all architectures, since the module code expects an int
   parameter (see module_set_memory()).

   This was indeed an issue since for debug_pagealloc() we call
   set_memory_4k() on the whole identity mapping. Therefore address this
   for now with the __set_memory_yy() variant, and address common code
   later

 - Use dev_set_name() and also fix memory leak in zcrypt driver error
   handling

 - Remove unused lsi_mask from airq_struct

 - Add warning for invalid kernel mapping requests

* tag 's390-6.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux:
  s390/vmem: do not silently ignore mapping limit
  s390/zcrypt: utilize dev_set_name() ability to use a formatted string

   - cpm_uart driver updates

   - n_gsm updates and fixes

   - tty structure size reduction

  All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
  issues. The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size
  reduction came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style
